de the financing structure, lack of qualified human resources, complexity of government regulations and bureaucracy in some areas such as business start-up and etc. There is hardly any literature that has critically surveyed the issue of why the MSMEs shy away and whether there is an alternative financing model that they can adopt. The present study critically assesses the related literatures and proposes a viable cash waqf-based model which has the potential to benefit Islamic MSMEs. To ensure the successful running of the cash-waqf based model, it is recommended for the model to be established under the umbrella of a respectable Islamic body, namely Indonesia Waqf Council/Badan Wakaf Indonesia (BWI).

The Data was collected from 20 participants. The researchers, analyzed the data using pearson's correlation coefficient JASP to examine the relationship between excessive assignment and mental health condition. Based on the findings, the result showed a significant positive correlation (r = 0.900, p <.001) between excessive assignment and mental health condition, indicating that 81.0% of the variance in students' mental health could be attributed to their perceived workload. Educational institutions should take proactive steps to manage student workloads and provide mental health support services, such as counseling, time management training, and flexible deadlines. Promoting a balanced approach to academic assessment that prioritizes both academic excellence and student well-being is crucial for fostering the success and well-being of English language students.

pertinent research articles and scholarly publications. The results show the importance of English language instruction in schools and the widespread use of the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach because of its efficiency in the teaching and learning process. The CLT method helps students improve their communication abilities by inspiring them to see English as a useful instrument for efficient conversation. The communicative approach, or communative language teaching (CLT), involves teaching language through communication. This type of language instruction positions communication as both a purpose and a means of learning English. The improvement of students' communication and interpersonal skills is a priority in communicative language instruction. Through contact between students and between students and teachers, it is made sure that students are capable of speaking clearly and confidently in real-life circumstances. CLT fundamentally seeks to have pupils learn a new language by having them to interact with others in that language.

al dan semi-komputerisasi melalui pencatatan nilai pada buku serta pengolahan data memakai Microsoft Excel. Keadaan tersebut memunculkan sejumlah kendala, seperti lambatnya proses pengolahan nilai, kesalahan perhitungan, duplikasi data, serta kesulitan saat pencarian dan penyimpanan data akademik. Oleh sebab itu, dibutuhkan sistem informasi akademik berbasis web guna mendukung pengelolaan nilai siswa secara lebih efektif, efisien, serta terintegrasi. Metode yang dipakai dalam kajian ini ialah prototype melalui tahapan identifikasi kebutuhan, pembuatan prototype, evaluasi, penyempurnaan, serta implementasi sistem. Pengembangan sistem dilakukan memakai Visual Studio Code sebagai text editor, XAMPP menjadi web server lokal, serta localhost guna pengujian aplikasi berbasis web. Sistem dibangun menggunakan PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, serta basis data MySQL. Hasil kajian memperlihatkan bahwasannya sistem informasi akademik berbasis web mampu melakukan peningkatan efisiensi pengolahan data, menekan human error, mempercepat penyusunan laporan nilai, serta memperkuat keamanan dan transparansi data akademik siswa di SMPI Hidayatul Athfal.
The development of information technology has had a significant impact on the field of education, particularly in the management of academic data and student assessment systems. SMPI Hidayatul Athfal still uses a manual and semi-computerized grading system, where scores are recorded in books and processed using Microsoft Excel. This system creates several challenges, such as delays in grade processing, calculation errors, data duplication, and difficulties in searching and storing academic data. Therefore, a web-based academic information system is needed to support the management of student grades in a more effective, efficient, and integrated manner. The research method used in this study is the prototype method, which includes the stages of requirements gathering, prototype development, evaluation, refinement, and system implementation. The system was developed using Visual Studio Code as the text editor, XAMPP as the local web server, and localhost as the web-based testing environment. The programming languages used include PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and MySQL as the database management system. The results of the study show that the web-based academic information system improves data processing efficiency, reduces human error, accelerates the generation of grade reports, and enhances the security and transparency of students’ academic data at SMPI Hidayatul Athfal.
Abstract:Ginjal merupakan organ vital yang berperan mengatur keseimbangan cairan, asam basa, metabolisme serta mengeluarkan toksin (sisa metabolisme) dari tubuh. Jika terjadi kerusakan pada ginjal dapat menyebabkan terjadinya penyakit…
yakit ginjal kronik yang mengakibatkan fungsi ginjal menurun sehingga ginjal tidak mampu mempertahankan keseimbangan cairan elektrolit, metabolisme dan terjadi uremia. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode berupa studi kasus pada satu pasien. Pertama kali dilakukan pengukuran rasa haus dengan menggunakan skala Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for Assessment of Thirst Intensity. Kemudian diberikan permen karet sebelum dan saat melakukan hemodialisa (HD), lalu dilakukan pengukuran kembali setelah diberikan permen karet untuk menilai keefektifan intervensi. Hasil menunjukan dengan dilakukannya intervensi mengunyah permen karet, tingkat haus pasien menurun dari skala 7 menjadi skala 3 selama 3 hari pemberian intervensi. Mengunyah permen mampu mengurangi rasa haus pada pasien yang sedang melakukan pembatasan cairan.
